Compare the same work before comparing totals
Start a simple comparison with one column for each proposal. Record the measured roof area, which roof sections are included, the exact profile and finish, removal of existing materials, disposal, and any allowance for repairs. Ask the contractor to mark exclusions clearly.
If one proposal assumes the existing deck is sound and another includes an allowance, the totals are not directly comparable. Ask how discovered damage would be documented and how additional work would be approved before it proceeds.
Get the system and warranty in writing
A picture or the phrase “metal roof” is not a complete specification. Request the proposed material, profile, coating, colour and compatible accessories. Use the product overview to prepare questions, then confirm the exact product in your own proposal.
Read product warranty terms separately from the contractor’s workmanship terms. Ask who provides each, what is excluded and what records you receive at handover. A headline warranty length does not establish the service life of your roof.
Plan the space around the house
Describe driveway use, shared access, nearby buildings and where people need to enter during the work. Ask where materials and waste containers would go and what happens if the available space is smaller than expected. Include any limits on access you already know.
For questions about the property or proposed exterior work, use the City of Brampton as the starting point for municipal enquiries. Have the address and project description ready; do not assume that a general roofing description determines the approvals for your property.
Request a property-specific Brampton assessment
FALX serves Brampton within the GTA from its visitor-capable Mississauga office at 2585 Drew Road, Unit 10, Mississauga, ON L4T 1G1. Contact FALX to arrange a visit. This service page does not claim a Brampton office or a portfolio of completed Brampton projects.
Review the published project examples for visible details, then ask which are relevant to the system you are considering. Use the Ontario cost guide for planning context, and request a quote based on your own roof.
